blochparty Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Sorry if this is a repeat--I've searched for hours and can't seem to find the answer. I finally got everything hooked up and ready to go (75 280Z with older 350 block, TH350 trans, Hurst Promatic2 shifter), but when I shift into any gear, it only goes forward (there's no reverse)! The car doesn't move when I've got the shifter in Park (maybe the trans is actually in Neutral?), but moving the shifter one slot down makes the car go forward, rather than reverse. Right now I've got the flat piece of metal on the trans pointing DOWN, so when the shifter is in Park, the "shifter bolt" on the trans is as far as it can go CLOCKWISE (when viewed from under the driver seat, with my head next to the driver's side front tire). Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzzzzzz Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I'd have to confirm but it sounds like you've got it backwards. Maybe I can look at a tranny in my garage later this evening and get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 The shift lever on the TH 350 has to be pointing up. When the lever is moved all the way forwards (close to the engine) the TH 350 it will be in 1st. Its in park when the shift lever in all the way back. There are 5 clicks as the lever is moved from 1st to park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
